That tweet from Gards is in the context of him denying that it’s Bale at Hotspur Way. Unclear whether by “SB” he means Bergwijn, Sander Berge, or whether it’s a typo of “GB”.

Dunno, but if this were a cryptic crossword clue the word 'soil' would be an anagram indicator. Usually suggesting the following word or words need to be rearranged (soil = mess up).

So mess up the letters in the words 'upon Hamlet' to get your 'reward', or answer.

I guess this must be Hum Polenta, the Hungarian DM from MTK Budapest.

You're welcome.

(But seriously, it could be an anagram)

Unfortunately SC cryptics bear little relationship to cryptic crossword conventions, although if they did, it would be more likely that 'find me' indicated the name was within the clue (such as 'lupo') than that 'soil' was the anagram indicator :pompous:.

I agree that’s the likeliest interpretation, I’m just saying it’s ambiguous given that it comes in the context of him denying it’s a player whose surname also starts with B, while people happen to be speculating about a second “SB”. I agree though that that’s the likeliest explanation.

Of course it's fucking unclear, because its getting out of hand.

There's far too much use of acronyms around here these days, HW, GB, KP and the rest. Just type the fucking name out and save us from having to either guess what the fuck you mean or read people asking and you end up typing out in full anyway.

All to save a few seconds. This is what the world is coming to. Eventually we'll be speaking exclusively in acronyms, WPWBWUT (Whole Posts Will Be Written Using Them)

You lazy, lazy ****s.

This is my guess: according to my dictionary (english is not my mother tongue so you can correct me if Im wrong or if it makes no sense) soil on is to shit on someone or sth similar. And according to some people here Hamlet is Danish, so if we shit on the danish we will find our reward. If we finally offload CE we will be rewarded. Bergwijn first, a CF and possibly this misterious player at HW would be our reward.

Probably is shit ?
